yeah my friend said i have one of the top of the line tires that goodyear has right now. even on that link that todd gave me they are still 210 each. my boyfriend said i could just put cheaper ones on it but id rather just try to save up for the ones that came on it ya know and i already know how they feel on the car instead of risking it with other ones.
Here are some options. I was not 100% sure of your tire size.
Goodyear Eagle F1 All Season (Ultra High Performance All-Season) $155.00
Special Offer:
Buy a set of four and get a $50 rebate by mail.
Size: 235/55ZR17
Sidewall Style: Blackwall
Kumho Ecsta SPT (Ultra High Performance Summer) $101.00
Size: 235/55ZR17
Buy what you are comfortable with, but do not be afraid to try other tires. I have had the Kuhmo tires above on my WRX I had. I took that car to 140.00 and also drove all day above 100.00 and the tires were great. You pay a premium for the name on the side of the tire.

I have Kumho on my stock rims, i had no issues with them. they actually felt better than stock IMO.
i agree with Todd, don't be afraid to try other tires! the kumho's he listed are definitely safer than your current tires.

yeahh maybe. but it sucks bcuz no matter what i do it seems like our relationship keeps getting worse and worse as time goes on.
thanks for that. and i'm pretty sure you got the size right actually. yeahh i'm most def gonna have to look around myself and whenever i get a job use all my money on that since apparently my dad isnt gonna help at all
You can go with either a v or z rated tire. You would also be plenty safe with an h rated tire as long as you don't exceed speeds of 130 mph. The difference is the heat that is built up at high speeds.
